Canadiens Highlights: Habs Battle Bad Luck In Shootout Win

Canadiens Highlights: Habs Battle Bad Luck In Shootout Win

The Montreal Canadiens faced the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday night, seeking a win after three frustrating losses. Fans at the Bell Centre chanted for Nico Larkin, but the captain is not interested in playing in Canada. The game remained scoreless until overtime, when the Canadiens scored one goal in the shootout.

Much like previous games, the Canadiens took an early lead, but a review ruled the puck hadn't crossed the line. Cole Caufield had a "ghost goal," but the call on the ice didn't matter during reviews.

Zachary Bolduc's fourth goal was overturned due to Jake Evans making contact with the netminder's stick. Kaiden Guhle returned to the ice, facing tough matchups and injuries. Noah Dobson had a strong defensive game, stripping the puck and avoiding a penalty.

Despite offside calls, Alexandre Texier's overtime goal didn't count. In the shootout, Bolduc scored the game-winning goal, securing a 1-0 victory for the Canadiens. The Canadiens will face the Buffalo Sabres at the Bell Centre on Tuesday at 7 pm ET.
